Ppi claims

Asking for my mum. She had a phone call from the bank last Year saying that my dad now deceased(10 years ago)had took out 3 ppi claims which she didn't know about. The bank sent her all the paperwork and she sent it back off. She rang the bank back but they wouldn't tell her what these claims were. Any idea how much she will get back please

    Nothing unless the complaint or claim is successful. Which one was it?

    What is this paperwork that she just returned to them?

    As your dad has been deceased for over 10 years, the case would likely have closed a long time ago.
    When did your mum return the paperwork?  Was she executor of the estate?

    Then if you father made a claim on all his policies ten years ago, they would have paid out or have been declined. 

    The amount would have depended on the time for which he was unemployed, sick, etc and in line with the policies.

    If he was claiming on the policy then it would end with his death.    PPI doesn't cover death.    It pays out on redundancy or the inability to work and be paid due to accident or sickness.     So, from what you are saying, he made claims on the policy 3 times. 

    What is strange is why you would need to fill out paperwork or be involved in a claim that would have been closed off over a decade ago.

    My mother filled in solicitors paperwork the ppi claims were from the Royal Bank of Scotland. My father died of bowel cancer 
  • Until you find out what paperwork your mother completed, there's no further light that can be shed on this.

    Why would you fill out solicitors paperwork on an insurance claim when the claiment died over a decade ago?
    Are you sure it was about claiming on the policy and not complaining?
